natural world takes place. This is the annual migration of millions of
wildebeest and zebra from the Serengeti (Tanzania) in search of water and
pasture from Mid Jul - Oct annually.

amazing. The big five sighting is out of question, the big cat diary of BBC has been filmed here due to highest number of cats in this park than any other in the world

cultural experiences by tourist through traditional ceremonies, food, dances
and sale of traditional crafts.

Amboseli National Park

Amboseli sits on the lower slopes of
mighty Mount Kilimanjaro - Africa’s highest - whose peak lies across the border
in Tanzania. It is quite an experience to see Kilimanjaro hovering above the
clouds in an early morning.

The animal pictures arising against the dramatic
backdrop of the mountain will thrill the photography enthusiast. Amboseli is
renowned for its huge elephant herds. Other residents of the Amboseli include:
buffalo, zebra, wildebeest and other plain animals.

Tsavo East National park

popular Wildlife Park as is indicated by the high number of tourists coming
here on safari from all over the globe. Some of the best attractions are: Large
herds of elephants, lions, zebra, and other wildlife. Popular legend of Tsavo
“The Man-eaters of Tsavo”

Tsavo West National Park - "The Land of
Lava, Man-eaters, springs and so
much more..."

The
park is a vast expanse of savanna stretching all the way from Mtito Andei,
along the Mombasa-Nairobi road and south to the Tanzanian border. There are
numerous rocky outcrops and ridges and part of the park, towards the Chyulu Hills, is of relatively recent volcanic origin with lava flows and
ash cones including the Shetani lava flow.

At
Mzima Springs, in the North of the park, water that has filtered underground
from the Chyulu Hills gushes from below a lava ridge into a
series of clear pools.

Lake Nakuru National Park

Lake Nakuru’s claim to fame is
anchored on its flamingo’s and the over 400 species of birds found here
(ornithological paradise). The lake itself is a soda lake on the floor of the
rift valley. The sight of the at times millions of flamingos is quite
spectacular. From a distance the lake appears ringed in pink.

The Lake has also
earned a reputation as an important haven for endangered species - particularly
the Rothschild Giraffe and the black and white rhino. Lions, water buck,
buffalo and baboons are all residents here.

Lake Bogoria National
Park

This small equatorial
lake has geysers, and hot springs. They are relatively few vantage points from
which you can see it but its topaz and green waters are strikingly beautiful.
Along Lake Bogoria’s western shore is a bed of hot springs and blowholes, which
infrequently erupt two and a half to three meters (8 to 10 ft) into the air,
and constantly emit a pungent sulfur smell. These geothermal phenomena are
intriguing but also dangerously hot where eggs get ready to eat in 3 minutes
